What options are there for compiling Scribus?

Sorry if this is a duplicate msg. I wasn't sure if it was sent properly.

Hello all and thanks to all who read further:

So far I've managed to aquire the following instructions from Ralf but upon
first look they appear to be written for being compiled with cygwin for
running in the XFree environment:

-----instructions-----
1. install qt-3.3.3 release (qt-3.3.1 does not work)
2. unpack scribus-1.2.1-src.tar.bz2
3. preconfigure:

make -f Makefile.dist

4. configure:

CFLAGS="-fdata-sections" CXXFLAGS="-fdata-sections"
LDFLAGS="-Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc,--script,$(QTDIR)/mkspecs/cygwin-g++/i386pi.x-no-rdata" 

./configure --prefix=/opt/scribus/1.2

5. make make CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -I/usr/include/lcms"
----------------------

However, I encountered some errors when attempting the following:

noone at sector0 /src/Scribus
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 sector0 1.5.12(0.116/4/2) 2004-11-10 08:34 i686 Cygwin

noone at sector0 /src/Scribus
$ make -f Makefile.dist
make: Makefile.dist: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile.dist'.  Stop.

noone at sector0 /src/Scribus
$

Ideally what I would prefer to do is figure out how to compile Scribus with
the Borland compiler the way we compile QT-3/Win, and that way we could then
run Scribus the same way we run Designer, etc.

What do you think? Is this possible?
